The US is rounding up and murdering people like cattle. And also managing dissent with bot farms and deliberate suppression of bad think on social media and also normalising a president who is not just senile, but likely also a psychopath, and very possibly - and this is, sadly, not exaggeration, given recent revelations - not just a sexual predator, but a serial killer.

Compared to Rest of World, the UK is barely making a dent on the Authoritarian Leaderboard.

Which is not to say things are great, because they really aren't, and the deals with Palantir are especially suspect.

But so far at least, the death toll is still pretty low.
